"Julie, that was not a very good impression of a princess." Aro scolded me in front of everyone.

"Yes Aro." I look at my hands. Fuck! My one power I hated was I still had human emotions. I was about to cry so I ran With Sarah close at my feet.

"Julie! Wait! I didn't mean to offend you." Aro yelled behind me.

I closed my room and sealed the door with my vines. I landed on the bed and cried for a few hours. Then a soft knock sounded at the door. I read the persons mind wondering if it was Aro but this person was think nice things. I let the vines circle the door.

"Come in." I whispered not sure of my voice. A man with blonde hair, that I saw enter with the Cullens, entered my room.

"Julie, I now you felt like a disappointment and sad but Aro is totally regretting saying that to you. You are very important to the Volturi, more that you probably know."

"I know how important I am. I'm an empath, too."

"You are? What can't you do?"

"Nothing. I could do everything."

"Oh, is that like a power of yours?"

"Yep."

"We should go back." He started to walk out.

"Hey," He turned. "thanks Jasper. You really helped out a lot."

"Your welcome but how did you know my name?"

"I can read minds. I said as I passed him. We walked to living room where only the Cullens sat. Aro must be punishing himself. He'll be back soon might as well mingle.

"Hi everyone." They looked at me and nodded then went back to their conversations completely ignoring me. I felt so terrible I wanted to cry again. Jasper was yelling my name in his head.

Julie, I know you feel terrible right now, but they are just scared they don't mean to be mean.

Jasper was trying to make me feel better. I could also feel him trying to sooth me with his power but it couldn't get past my shield. Jasper went and sat by a pixie like girl and put her arm around her. They were mates. What was I to do? I could apologize.

"Everyone I have something to say." No one looked at me. This was really pissing me off. How rude could they be to me.

"Hello. I'm still a person with feelings." I yelled and finally they looked at me. "I have a shot temper due to me being different. I have purple eyes, a slow heart beat, human feelings, and I'm alone in this world. When Sarah came to my life I finally had a friend who didn't care about my beauty or power. I'm sorry I did that to you Emmett but Sarah is the only one in my life who I feel doesn't care if I'm beautiful or how many special powers I have. I over reacted like a mother would do for a child. I'm so sorry but not even a killer deserves to be not talked to." I collapsed and the world was going dim, my shield had left and I could feel Jasper trying to help me up by soothing me. I stood up. I was begging for friends that hated me.

I ran back to my room Sarah looked up from my bed and looked at me. I had woken her up. She soon fell back asleep and I went to draw. I drew Jasper and the pixie like girl that glared at me. Then I drew the bronze haired boy talking to a brown haired girl. Then I drew Carlisle with his wife. Then came Emmett and the blonde haired girl. Finally I drew Phil. He had no mate. By the time I was done it was morning so I took a shower and went to the studio in the castle.

I got their and put on music. Jane, Felix, Alex, and Heidi walked in. They always came to fool around with me when I put on the music. We were laughing and dancing when I heard nine vampires approach. I didn't care, I thought hey why not give them a show.

"I thought you would like to see Julie when sees comfortable and her real side. What you saw yesterday was her war side, one side that rarely comes out," Said someone that sounded like Aro. I'm only me when I'm with you by Taylor Swift. I loved this song when I was human but it was about 500 years old now.

Taylor Swift - I'm Only Me When I'm With You

Friday night beneath the stars,
in a field behind your yard,
you and I are paintin' pictures in the sky.
And sometimes we don't say a thing;
just listen to the crickets sing.
Everything I need is right here by my side.
And I know everything about you
I don't wanna live without you.

[Chorus:]
I'm only up when you're not down.
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground.
It's like no matter what I do.
Well you drive me crazy half the time;
the other half I'm only trying to let you know that what I feel is true.
And I'm only me when I'm with you.

Just a small town boy and girl
livin' in a crazy world.
Tryin' to figure out what is and isn't true.
And I don't try to hide my tears.
The secrets or my deepest fears.
Through it all nobody gets me like you do.
And you know everything about me.
You say you can't live without me.

[Chorus]

When I'm with anybody else it's so hard to be myself.
Only you can tell.

[Chorus:]
That I'm only up when you're not down.
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground.
It's like no matter what I do.
Well you drive me crazy half the time;
the other half I'm only trying to let you know that what I feel is true.
And I'm only me
Who I wanna be
Well, I'm only me when I'm with you
With you
Uh huh
Yeah

The song had finished and I turned to see al the Cullens and Aro were looking at me. Jane and Heidi were giggling nervously while Felix and Alex laughed at the shocked look on my face.

"Julie, we are truly sorry am we would like to get to know you better," Carlisle spoke but everyone else nodded.

"You're forgiven. I was being a little reckless using the elements."

I must leave but before I go Carlisle, Esme would you like to join me for a walk?"

"It would be a pleasure." They walked out and Jane, Felix, Alex, and Heidi had work to do and left.

The pixie came up to me with sorrow in her eyes.

"I'm sorry Julie but I should have known you were a good person since I could see the future and all. Let's start from the beginning. Hi! I'm Alice." She pointed to the bronze haired boy and the brown haired girl. "That is Edward and Bella." Alice then pointed to the blonde girl. "That's Rosaline but just call her Rose." She then pointed to the dark skinned boy. "That's Philip but just call him Phil." Right at that moment my watch beeped. It was time to sing for Volterra. I looked down guiltily but Alice's thoughts caught my interest.

I hope she likes to shop because I have to know where she got her shoes and where I could get a pair.

"I'm sorry guys, but I have to get ready for a show. Do you wanna come? I have extra tickets."

"Of course we'll go," Alice chimed in. I gave her the tickets and we were on our way to the stage in the center of Volterra. Aro had made sure the entire stage was covered so I didn't have to wear my robe. My announcer went on stage.

"Okay everyone are you ready for Volterra's one and only princess?!?" The crowd yelled an approval. "Okay Julie will sing 'You belong with me' first." He walked of stage and the music started to play so I went on stage.

You belong with me

You're on the phone
with your girlfriend
she's upset
she's going off about
something that you said
she doesn't get your humor
like i do

i'm in my room
it's a typical tuesday night
i'm listening to the kind of music
she doesn't like
she'll never know your story
like i do

but she wears short skirts
i wear t-shirts
she's cheer captain
and i'm on the bleachers
dreaming about the day
when you wake up and find
that what you're looking for
has been here the whole time

if you could see
that i'm the one
who understands you
been here all along
so why can't you
see you belong with me
you belong with me.

walking the streets
with you and your worn out jeans
i can't help thinking
this is how it ought to be
laughing on a park bench
thinking to myself
hey, isn't this easy?

and you've got a smile
that could light up this whole town
i haven't seen it in awhile
since she brought you down
you say you're fine
i know you better than that
hey whatchu doing
with a girl like that

she wears high heels
i wear sneakers
she's cheer captain
i'm on the bleachers
dreaming about the day
when you wake up and find
that what you're looking for
has been here the whole time

if you could see
that i'm the one
who understands you
been here all along
so why can't you
see you belong with me
standing by and
waiting at your backdoor
all this time
how could you not know
baby
you belong with me
you belong with me.

instrumental

oh, i remember
you driving to my house
in the middle of the night
i'm the one who makes you laugh
when you know you're about to cry
and i know your favorite songs
and you tell me about your dreams
think i know where you belong
think i know it's with me

can't you see
that i'm the one
who understands
been here all along
so why can't you see?
you belong with me.

I took a deep breath. The concert was going great until something in the crowd caught my eye.
